Proud Bhutanese here…. All this is thanks to our visionary 4th monarch… His majesty King Jigme Singye Wangchuck… ( plz look him up if u have the time) …. Here’s a few notable things he did besides the far sighted policies implemented… 1. Granted democracy to the people without people asking for it. 2. When the country’s sovereignty was threatened by insurgents, although we were outnumbered, the then king himself lead the soldiers into the battle field and flushed them out.. 3. Handed over the throne to the present king at the age of 53 years whilst he could’ve remained on the throne like the rest of the world leaders do… 4. I mean our king basically lives in a small cottage… 5. Came up with the idea to build his nation on the basis of GNH ( gross national happiness) than GDP…. @ the age of 17…. ( one of the main 4 pillars is “conservation of environment” Which is why even after decades later.. we still have a forest cover of 70 percent and we remain carbon negative) Plz take ur time to verify this people… and drop a like if he deserves The Noble Prize ……..

[@comradeleppi2000]
